A recent report from @CMO_Council asserts that "marketing and MarTech lie at the heart of recovery." I couldn't agree more. CIOs & CMOs need to work closely to reach desired results that align with business goals. Great piece, @mediaupdate. #Marketing #CMO https://t.co/aAtJn5jvNL

[Jonathan Metrick @metrickmind]

Great piece from @B2Community that highlights the #MarketingTrends to look for the rest of the year. Such trends include #SocialAudio: "audio rooms open up marketing opportunities for brands via community engagement." https://t.co/jFyQ8fFnUc

[Jonathan Metrick @metrickmind]

To compete for #GenZ viewership against Tik Tok, Youtube has recently launched Youtube Shorts. As one of its largest #AdCampaigns to date, Shorts aims to place Youtube back at the front of the pack in the #DigitalVideo space. Do you think it can compete? https://t.co/bvkWQ0L1K6

[Jonathan Metrick @metrickmind]

Great piece from @KarlSakas who writes for @B2Community on client satisfaction: "If your goal is to get 100% satisfaction from 100% of clients, you’ll find yourself making too many compromises." Optimization is key! #CustomerExperience #CX https://t.co/SPWAsF9a6A

.@jarrodgingras advises that when choosing the right vendor & technology for #MarTech, marketers should start by building an "interdisciplinary team of marketing and technical stakeholders" to make the best choices. #MarketingTeam https://t.co/hpnzNaQtqw
